There isn’t a lot to say about rookie minicamp, since it’s largely an instructional, informational, and opportunity period for young players. Pretty much the only significant stories that ever come out of them are whether or not somebody was signed, released, or injured.
The Pittsburgh Steelers’ rookie minicamp this past season was unusually newsworthy, given that they waived five players and signed five after the fact. But there was also some question about their second-highest draft pick, third-round wide receiver Diontae Johnson, and why he spent a lot of the three-day period watching his teammates from the side.
